Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy insists he wasn't weighing in on Cleveland's starting quarterback battle during a livestream clip that quickly went viral.

Jeudy flashes four fingers in the TikTok video, taken by many to indicate his support for the player who wears that jersey number, Deshaun Watson.

"Yall cut the clip perfectly for that narrative," Jeudy posted Sunday on X, referencing the apparent skip in the clip between when the question is posed and when Jeudy holds up his fingers.

Jeudy, 27, who is entering his third season with the Browns, said he will not weigh in as new head coach Todd Monken and his staff evaluate the training camp competition between Watson and Shedeur Sanders.

"I don't speak on decisions that aren't mine to make. I support my teammates/Brothers, I do my job, and control what I can control," Jeudy posted on X. "Let's stop creating narrative that aren't there for likes and clicks. I bet this won't go viral because it's too positive/real for y'all."

Jeudy caught 50 passes for 602 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games (16 starts) in 2025, when Watson missed the entire season with a torn Achilles. Jeudy made the Pro Bowl in his first season with Cleveland in 2024, setting career highs in catches (90) and receiving yards (1,229).
